WOW Worship (Purple) | Posted March 02, 2010
[MAIN REVIEW]
With over 16 million units sold to date with great momentum coming off WOW Hits 2009 & Hits 2010, the brand of WOW is bigger and better than ever! And just in time for Easter 2010, the WOW partnership is proud to announce the release of WOW Worship (Purple). This two disc, 30 song collection includes; "All Because of Jesus" (Casting Crowns); "Revelation Song" (Kari Jobe); "Your Name" (Paul Baloche); and more. I’ve been collecting every WOW collection album since their inception with WOW 1996, released in 1995. As a collector of the top songs in Christian music, the WOW Hits compilations are fair representations of the most popular songs in Christian music. The WOW Worship collections started in 1999, and this is the 7th in the collection and the first Worship compilation since Aqua in 2006, and many amazing worship songs were recorded in the last 4 years as evidenced by this excellent compilation.

One observation is that the landscape of worship songs has been greatly influenced by the emergence of Nashville based artists covering songs by Hillsong and Hillsong United. There was only one Hillsong recording on Aqua, “Worthy Is The Lamb.” I’m very happy to see that there are six Hillsong recordings on Purple, including brand-new recordings “Lead Me To The Cross” (Francesca Battistelli), which for me is one of the highlights of this collection, along with “Desert Song” (Natalie Grant); “Mighty To Save” (Hillsong United); “Shout Unto God” (Michael W. Smith); “Hosanna” (Selah); and “How Great Is Our God” (Hillsong London), which is a great live recording of the famous song by Chris Tomlin. Speaking of Chris Tomlin, this compilation also includes top worship songs "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)" (Chris Tomlin); "Everlasting God" (Lincoln Brewster); “Your Grace Is Enough” (Matt Maher); “God Of This City” (Passion) and “The Wonderful Cross” (Matthew West), which is another highlight for me.

Some other emerging Passion worship artists and songs appearing on this collection includes “Everything Glorious” (David Crowder*Band); “Beautiful Jesus” (Kristian Stanfill); “Marvelous Light” (Charlie Hall); “Give Us Clean Hands” (Kutless), which is another highlight for me and "You Never Let Go" (Matt Redman). I’ve always enjoyed Big Daddy Weave and BarlowGirl’s recording of “You’re Worthy Of My Praise” and another standout song on the collection is “New Song We Sing” by up and coming worship artist Meredith Andrews.

CLOSING THOUGHTS
There are 30 great reasons to pick up this excellent worship compilation, which is the best in this great series in my opinion. I think it was great to wait four years and really put together a fresh and contemporary selection of songs that really complements the previous collections. Whether you are a long-time collector or new to the Christian music scene, WOW Worship (Purple) is a worthy addition to any worship music collection. These songs all praise Jesus and are wonderful examples of the great artistry and creativity that is honoring to God.

Rating: 9.2 out of 10 (92%, A)
